The DeSantis Gunhide Tap Out is an excellent holster for duty use. The Tap Out system is the first holster of its kind with patents pending. It is a multi security level, ambidextrous, and multi use system that is extremely intuitive. Every officer, left and right handed, in the department can train the same way, with the same operating system. It is built from a special highly reinforced polymer, making is very strong, rustproof, and it can endure all weather extremes.

The Tap Out system transforms from a plain-clothes mode into a high security level duty holster. The basic holster body will be fitted with a "mode adapter" which allows the carry mode to be changed in mere seconds without tools. The muzzle cover and Slide Break replace the "rail cover" and add an additional level of security while keeping the draw stroke very operator friendly.
